Sea Birds Cafe — Restaurant in Hitachi

Great location, great atmosphere but food was below average at best, much worse considering the price.

A lot of things sold out when we arrived at 12:30 (?), so I ordered their "most popular" item, a non-picture worthy clubhouse sandwich (trying to find a nice way to phrase it...) which came in an absolute mess of undercooked fries which were hard to eat, and with a poorly dressed salad in between which made the whole thing soggy.

I also had a cream soda, which was made of fountain melon soda and low quality ice cream at a price I'd expect a bit better really.

The person sitting next to me didn't finish his gapao rice, I don't think he was impressed either...

It's a shame, the location offers a great view on the ocean, but it's clear they make more money on the view than they do...

It was a on day reservation and they smoothly accepted the reservation and they agreed to arrange a birthday cake as well. food was exceptional and good portions it was a meal worth the money(we felt normally in Japan meals are delicious but we pay a lot and eat small portions) but here it’s was so good prices are average. service 100%, not crowed when we were there. But sometime it might get crowded. I would go again in the day time because it has a nice sea view. Atmosphere was so calm and quiet. Whole Encounter was a pleasant. So I will recommend this place by whole...

Nice cafe beside the sea made of glass. Food and drinks on offer are actually quite good. Ample parking space outside with the first 30 minutes are free, then its a 100 yen for every 30 mins that follow. Its connected to the JR Hitachi train station. Place seemed a bit cluttered and needs some cleaning as its a bit dusty. No toilet on the premises. You need to go downstairs. There is a nice promenade just outside the cafe which gives a panoramic view of the sea. Not much to see in the evening though. Its a good stop over if you are passing...
